Description

This hike leads over a broad, well-developed path past the flowering alpine meadows to the Bachalpsee. At the start of the hike, there is a short but steep ascent to the Gummihütte that must be tackled. Afterwards, you will be able to walk up to the blue jewel of the Bernese Alps. The sharp, jagged peaks of the Wetterhorn, Schreckhorn and Finsteraarhorn on the opposite side of the valley are impressive. Expansive meadows and numerous benches invite you to take a long break.
